Don't have more than one backup available on Itunes?

So I use Windows 8 and am having issues with backing up my Iphone 6.
When I go to backup it up on Itunes, the backup I create overrides the old one. Going into "Restore Backup" I can't find any older/additional backups than the most recent one.
Wondering if this is something I've toggled or can fix to allow creation/viewing of more than one older Backup at a time.
Any ideas?
I've looked here but couldn't find a solution: Create and delete iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch backups in iTunes - Apple Support
In,
:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
I only have 1 file again, which's title and contents are just random letters and numbers rather than the name of my Iphone.

Indeed, sadly there is no way back to older backups if you haven't created the,. I use the option to prevent devices syncing automatically as I think this presents a risk when you want to fix a problem by restoring only to have the backup automatically updated when you connect the device. I try to run a backup then immediate restore cycle every few months so that should the worst happen I might not lose too much. I also have my library cloned to two different computers each of which have separate backups for my device which gives yet more resilience to a disaster.

  • Can I have more than one user account on itunes?

    My wife and I currently have a laptop each, and so I have my itunes account through my macbook and my wife has hers through her macbook.
    We are looking at getting a Mac Mini, as my wife's macbook is on it's last legs, and we would like to have both itunes accounts on the new Mac to sync our phones/ipod/ipad with. Is this possible? I don't wish to pay for the music my wife buys, and she has no interest in paying for Apps i use etc. Would it be possible to run 2 itunes accounts through 1 itunes on 1 mac?

    An iPod touch cannot be synched to more than one computer at a time. You can have content from more than one iTunes Store account, but that content either has to be collected onto a single computer for synching to the iPod, or downloaded directly from the iTunes Store.
    Regards.

  • Can you have more than one device on an iTunes account

    I currently have an iTunes account for my iPhone 4S ......I am looking to purchase an iPod Nano and was wondering if I can add this device to my current ITunes account or If I need to create a new one.

    An iPod nano doesn't connect to the iTunes Store directly, so you really don't add it to your account, per se. Just connect the nano to iTunes on your computer and sync.

  • HT2731 Can we have more than one Apple ID for iTunes on the same computer

    We have a family computer.  On this computer we have an iTunes account.  My son would like to set up his own iTunes account on the same computer.  Can this be done if he creates his own Apple ID and can we use the same credit card # to set up the account?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Of course. Just create a new user account for him, so he can have his content on another user without messing your data

  • Can I have more than one profile on my iTunes account?

    My wife and I share our iTunes account because we share our home computer.  Our problem lies in each of us having separate devices, I have an iPhone5, she has an iPad.  How can we each have individual gamecenter accounts?  It's become an issue now, because we both can't play Clumsy Ninja because we have the same profile.

    You will need seperate AppleIDs to do that, but Game Center and other functions requiring AppleIDs can be signed into seperately (i.e. you can continue using the same ID for itunes and app store purposes, but different IDs for Game Center, icloud, etc.).

  • Can't I get my old iTunes that I have purchased downloaded from Apple?  I don't have the old computer anymore.  Also, is there a number to call if I think I have more than one account and would like them to consolidate my accounts?

    I have two problems:
    1.  I no longer have my old computer and want to download the iTunes I have purchased in previous years.  Aren't they all in "the cloud?"
    2.  I think I have more than one account and would like to get them combined.  Is there a good number or email to Apple that I could get that done?
    THanks!
          SHawn

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Have you failed to do this?
    You can redownload some iTunes purchases in some countries:
    Download past purchases - Apple Support
    As provided, you cannot merge accounts
    Sorry

  • I have more than one photo backup on my computer now itunes has downloaded three of each photo. How do I remove duplicates

    I have more than one photo backup on my computer now itunes has downloaded three of each photo. How do I remove duplicates?

    Wich version of iPhoto do you have? You need iPhoto '09 or '11 to order prints.
    Make an album of all photos you want to order in the same order.
    Then select all photos at once, when you use Share > order prints.
    You should see a panel like this, where you can mark the quantities. The screenshot is from iPhoto 9.6:

    My hard drive has 70.93 GB available, yet when i have more than one internet tab open, i have to force quit google chrome because 'there is no more available application memory'. How can I solve this? I have a 2009 macbook pro running on 10.6.8. I have tried updating to mavericks through the mac app store but after it downloading for a day i got an error message saying there was a problem with the download. The same thing happens if i try to update itunes or the mac app store. After research, i have also tried repairing disk permissions, but every time they do get repaired the 'repair' button still appears, i'm not sure if it's because it was unable to repair the initial problems or if it just keeps detecting new ones.

    2 GBs is a minimum in which you can do many things, but not concurrently. Be very careful to not install third-party add-ons, limit the number of applications you choose to enter in Login Items, run as few applications concurrently as you demand.
    I would consider adding more RAM to your computer. Your model supports 8 GBs, so I would install that.

  • HT4897 I have more than one iCloud account.... Once an email alias is deleted from one account.... can it then be used by another account?  If so, how long after it's deletion before it's made available?

    I have more than one iCloud account.... Once an email alias is deleted from one account.... can it then be used by another account?  If so, how long after it's deletion before it's made available?

    Aliases remain tied forever to the account which created them. They cannot be moved to another account, converted to a full account, nor reinstated after being deleted.

  • HT1206 I have a computer with 2 users and each of us have I tunes authorized but only one of us can cloud sync our purchases what can I do I need more than one ID available

    Help please I need to have more than one Itunes Id

    Well you need to understand the behavior of h-reap or what it's called now, FlexConnect. In this mode, the clients are still remembers on the WLC until the session timer/idle timer expires. So switching between SSID's in h-reap will not be the same when switching when the AP's are in local mode.
    Take a look at the client when connected in FlexConnect in the WLC GUI monitor tab. Thus will show you what ssid and vlan the client is on. Now switch to a different ssid and compare this. It's probably the same because the client has not timed out. Now go back to the other ssid and look again. Now on the WLC, remove or delete the client and then switch to the other ssid at the same time. Or switch SSID's and then remove the client. The client will join the new ssid and in the monitor tab, you should see the info.
    There is no need to have clients have multiple SSID's unless your testing. Devices should only have one ssid profile configured to eliminate any connectivity issues from the device wanting to switch SSID's.

    Hard drive says I have more than 300 GB available with a 500 gb capacity. Yet I get "Low Disk Space" error messages when I do anything.
    Attempted solutions:
    -I created a new User Account and I can download large files with no issues.
    -I ran "Repair Disk Permissions" but still get warnings.
    Google Drive Warning:
    Spotify Warning:        
    But on my other user account I can use spotify and download large files, etc.

    Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
    Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
    { sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
    This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not  going to reset a password.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • Is it better to have more than one Catalog

    I have close to 800 GB worth of images, and I just got LR, so not sure what would be best.
    I will be importing my images as (Reference), since I have all my images on Ext. HD. The questions that I have is should I import my images on two separate Catalogues.
    I read somewhere that it's recommended to have more than one Catalogue as a precautionary measurement, I guess if something happens to one of the catalogues, I still would have some images available. Yes, I am aware of back ups.
    I am open to any suggestions,
    Thanks

    Elli,
    Aah, now that makes a difference. It seems that we are concurring, what you described is the same thing that mentioned where you can set under "Preferences" to select which Catalog to work with. I think what threw me off, is when you said that your DB was on your Int. HD. Actually, I think all is there is the name of the file,i.e., .lrdb.
    I think this is the safest way to set up LR, regardless how many images you have. You always have to think about Plan B. I'll check the link you sent me. I'm also using LR User's Manual 135 pgs.
    I am aware of the large number of images I have, and that is why I'm editing, deleting as much as possible prior to the migration. I checked the Preferences and I changed preview at 1024 pixel (the smallest).
    JohB
    Yeah, it's kind of funny regardless. Oh I wish I could have an invisible dig camera reaching the other side hmmm, that would be something eh?
    I would like to use the same analogy you used. I am sure that B&Noble keeps a separate DB and they extract and manipulate their DB with their Corp. DB. Having said that, that is basically my intention. Why would I review my inventory relying on a single DB. Why not bring the DB for the store that I am interested.
    There are a couple of reasons that I'd go for more than one Catalog. One is the obvious it would be a huge preview file to open and work with a single DB. Second, if something should happen I don't want to be dependent on having all my images on a single DB. Granted, I'd have a back up but..... you never know.
    I am sure about performance issue, but I would suspect that for the mere fact, that if you open LR is going to take a bit longer to bring all the previews on.
    In spite of the big task I have, it has been very rewarding. I found some images that I have not seen for a while and too be honest some were huge files. I remember that I have a couple that I had it sent for Drum scanning and the file is huge. I have taken them out of my HD and made multiple DVD copies. Can you imagine having this puppy on LR and trying to boot up?
    JohnK,
    Thanks for bringing up a good point, about using a different keyword system. Now the question is how could I differentiate them in a very simple way having a big file. I was thinking that I could batch it or maybe using Automator

  • Can you have more than one user account on an Ipad

    can you have more than one account on the ipad.

    But...
    You CAN connect an iPad to multiple Apple ID's, one-at-a-time, if you're willing to share a combined pool of apps, music, movies, photos, podcasts, and perhaps, email accounts, and sync things manually.
    First, uncheck the option to 'automatically sync' mobile devices in the preferences for each iTunes account, so that you're not accidentally installing or removing content when you connect the iPad to a computer.
    Here's how we do it:
    I have a MacBook with two user accounts and two Apple ID's: "Hers"-used only for iTunes/iPad manual sync-ing and backup; and "Mine", used for all my Mac programs, plus iPad Apps that I'm interested in.
    The iPad2 is her only computing device, used primarily for email and web-browsing.
    On her iPad2, we have a combined 'pool' of apps, photos, and music.
    We use her Apple ID for her email, and to sync and back up.
    I use my Apple ID to download a lot of free apps to my MacBook.
    In the App Store, I sign out of her Apple ID and use my Apple ID to transfer and update the apps I want to try out. Then I can delete them from her iPad when I'm done 'playing', yet leave them on my MacBook for future re-installation, if desired.
    To simplify email privacy, we've configured the iPad Mail app exclusively for her MobileMe and Hotmail accounts. I connect to my email accounts with the Safari browser, or from my MacBook.
    Hope that helps!
    I'm not certain how iOS 5 and iCloud might enhance or restrict my ability to manage this in the future.

  • If I have more than one secure website open with different windows, is the information I provide on one website secure from the other websites?

    The question really says it all. For some purposes, it would be helpful to have more than one password protected website open at the same time so I can go back and forth between them. However, I don't want to risk my passwords and other information being available in the process.
    Thanks for your help.
    Kip

    Yes, they are secure from each other.
